Safeguarding sensitive data is vital for public- and private-sector organizations operating remotely and connecting globally. Whether it's proprietary or intellectual property, confidential data or personally identifiable information, organizations need solutions that ensure the security and integrity of their digital assets. That's where Digital Rights Management (DRM) comes into play.

At FileCloud, we understand the importance of protecting your data, which is why we're excited to announce the launch of our new Secure Web Viewer. This tool helps users share and preview sensitive documents securely, without compromising on ease of use or accessibility.

Why DRM Matters

DRM serves as a vital component in safeguarding sensitive data and intellectual property. By providing a secure framework to control access, usage, and distribution of digital assets, DRM helps prevent unauthorized sharing and distribution, reducing the risk of data breaches and intellectual property theft.

With FileCloud's Secure Web Viewer, you can rest assured that your confidential documents are protected every step of the way.

Key Features and Benefits

No Native Client Downloads: Gone are the days of cumbersome native client downloads. FileCloud's Secure Web Viewer eliminates the need for complex software installations, making it accessible to users of all technical levels. With just a few clicks, users can securely share and preview DRM-protected documents directly through their browser via the FileCloud portal.

Protection without Compromise: With our Secure Web Viewer, you can share and preview documents without exposing the physical file itself. Recipients can view the file securely, without the ability to download or redistribute it.

Granular Access Controls: Our DRM solution offers granular access controls, allowing you to tailor permissions based on roles, departments, or specific user requirements. This ensures that only authorized individuals have access to sensitive information.

Collaborate with Confidence: Collaborate seamlessly without giving full access to protected information. The Secure Web Viewer allows recipients to view one portion of the document while obscuring the rest, minimizing the risk of information exposure.

Easy and Quick to Use: FileCloud's Secure Web Viewer is designed for ease of use, ensuring that even the least technical end-users can securely share and preview documents.

How It Works

The Secure Web Viewer is facilitated by the Web DRM server, which retrieves the physical copy from the FileCloud Server and previews the file to the client without sharing the physical file itself.

Preview of files is achieved by converting them into a series of videos that are streamed on-demand through the Secure Web Viewer. With Protected View enabled, the videos are segmented into smaller parts, allowing for even more restricted viewing.

Conclusion

With FileCloud's Secure Web Viewer, protecting sensitive data has never been easier. Whether you're collaborating with colleagues, sharing confidential documents with clients, or safeguarding valuable intellectual property, FileCloud’s DRM solution ensures that your information remains secure at all times.

Say goodbye to unauthorized sharing and data breaches – experience the power of FileCloud's Secure Web Viewer today.
